It's been a while...
Hello, Piboso
I mostly left the forum for several years due to different reasons, but I feel like it's a good time to finally come back.
First of all, thank you really, REALLY a lot for the improvements you did on the sim. Two things in particular: directsteer=2 and that I'm no longer getting the notorious core.exe crash.
This version of GP Bikes has finally become what I would call usable with direct steering. It's still easy to drop the bike in situations like being leaned over to a side and especially while going through a tight bend up a slope, but nonetheless, the progress is massive. I have finally started to enjoy it a lot.
However, you seem to be reluctant to make further improvements to this unique mode. That is a pity. I think DST is what sets GP Bikes apart from any other sim. It deserves at least a couple of separate lines in the config UI. I'm sure not many even realize what kind of gem is buried in the profile.ini.
I noticed that the headtracking only uses three rotational degrees of freedom. While it adds a lot to the whole experience, including at least two of the missing translational DOF might offload other controls and make for a more natural riding experience. Why not have an option to use lateral and longitudinal translation affect the rider lean?
Edit: forgot to add, good job on the recent WRS as well. It was hardly a sim I would fire up remotely any often at all, but now that Caterham-alike is loads of fun If only there were more high quality tracks... Same goes to GPB.
